Hello, I am Delfina. I was born in the year 1985 in Russia. In the year 2002 as I was 17 years old, I finished school and started at an university. In this summer I had an horrible accident that changed my life completely. I tried to rescue my cat from my neighbours balkony. My neighbour wasnīt at home and my cat wasnīt able to get back from his balkony. So I tried to climb to the other balkony. Unfortunately I lost my balance and fell down from the fifth floor.
I was very severe injured and my doctors fighted two days to save my life. Nearly all bones in my body were broken. Including the spine two times. They rebuilt me like a puzzle. Unfortunately they werenīt able to rescue my leg and so they had to amputate it above my knee.
When I woke up and realized the situation, I didnīt feel sorry for my missing leg. I was very happy that i am allowed to continue my life. My rehabilitation was a long and painfull time. I try not to remember those days. The worst thing was, when I came slowly to the conclusion that sports and in particular volleyball will never be part of my life again.
I am a very active person and I had the support from my friends from the beginning of my new life. They made a almost normal life possible for me. I had everything all other people have, like friends, work, adventures and relationships. I had no problems with males in these years.
I really donīt like compassion. My life is wonderful I'm satisfied with it and I had a lot luck.
As you can guess, I didnīt come to Natalie by accident. I want to show other disabled women that we are appreciated the way we are, with our special beauty. That life continues and that there is no reason to hide at home. "The people arround us, see us the way we present ourselves to them"
I hope the like the videoclips and the images we produced for you.
With very kind regards. Yours Delfina
